1) Modern microcontrollers and digital signal processors for the use in microprocessor controller drives. Examples for Texas Instrument DSP TMS320F2812 or Freescale DSP 56F82723. The most important types of peripheral units used within a drive: A/D converters, D/A converters, programmable counters, U/f converters, programmable logic. 2) Modern control structures used in electromotor drives. 2?) practical realization of a vector controlled drive from asynchronous motor and position sensor 2b) practical realization of a vector controlled drive from synchronous motor and position sensor 3) state estimation and parameter estimation of a asynchronous motor in operation 4) modern methods of controlling asynchronous motor without position senor– IM shaft-sensorless 4?) application of methods based on asynchronous motor 4.a.1 open-loop method., 4.?.2 speed and position estimators and 4.?.3 observers of rotor speed and rotor flux position 4b) methods based on test signal injection method 5) modern method of control of synchronous motor with permanent magnets without position sensor – PM shaft-sensorless 5?) influence of configuration of synchronous motor rotor on the choice of sensorless method 5?) PM sensorless methods based on synchronous motor model 5c) PM sensorless methods based on test signal injection method. Part of the course is based on the independent study and research work in the field of digitally controlled drives and converters. Study and research work is based on the primary scientific sources, organization and conduction of experiments as well as statistical analysis of data, numerical simulations, and writing a paper on the narrow scientific area in which doctoral dissertation is based.
